Great for a family.
Nice place to spend time with the family. Clean and good pool. It would be great to get Coen towels every day, perhaps we should have asked. Food and drinks are ok. We ended up going elsewhere for breakfast most mornings. We ended up buying a lot of bottled water everywhere in El Paredon, it would be great if they have waterfilters you can fill your bottle up with, like we saw in most places in Guatemala. The accommodation was good, comfortable beds, lots of fans as there is no airco, spacious.

Lovely spot for a surf getaway. Steps from the beach but a couple hundred meters down from the party/hang/party at the surf clubs. Nice staff, convenient kitchen and bar service, chill pool - peaceful and serene.

A very nice small cozy hotel with a great tasting hamburger on the menu. This is very close to the busy streets in El Paredon but with enough distance to be quiet and avoid the noise and business. It's just a few meters away from the beach, which is awesome.

Not A/C in a 5 pax cabin… Impossible to Sleep!
The hotel room (the cabaña) didn’t have A/C which is so inconvenient but we saw on the website that had an A/C that’s why we picked the hotel. The light in the room didn’t work so the room was so dark. We ask about it but they said that after 10pm the light will work but didn’t work. The service is so slow and the bill is messy most of the time they overcharged so we had to checked everything. The managers or owners of the hotel live there so you can’t make any noise after 10pm because they could get disturb! They left just 2 towels in a 5 person cabin so I asked twice and I never got it. The place is so small. We paid for 2 nights but we decided to leave because without A/C it’s impossible to sleep!! The cabin was so HOT! I wouldn’t go back.
